Lion Games Co. Ltd. kicked off a free beta of their newest title, SoulWorker, on February 26th. The title is posted as a Free-To-Play MMO (although Rock Paper Shotgun’s time in game didn’t convey that). The game posting has a number of features that will be available “at launch,” but since this is a beta, it appears as though more content will continue to be added. What the timeframe is for that content, or what it will entail, has not been mentioned.

The Co-Opticrew is taking some time this weekend for a little early Spring Cleaning. Specifically, we'll be cleaning hordes of talking rats out of the gutters and alleyways of the Old World in Vermintide 2. It's a tough job, but luckily, we stopped by our local hardware store and grabbed a few new pyromancy spells and various bludgeoning tools. Those should help do the trick.

Just when you think the whole "zombie" thing is over, another game, book, or movie pops up just to prove that it will never truly be dead. Luckily, this specific resurgence is occurring via State of Decay 2, the sequel to Undead Labs' zombie survival title from 2013.

Occasionally, there are games that just totally capture my attention due to the sheer joy that seems to be a part of its very core. Enter The Swords of Ditto by onebitbeyond. Even if the title was a single-player only affair I'd be all in, but the fact that it's two player couch co-op bumps this up to my "anticipated games" list.

Things are starting to pick up once more for game releases, so we decided to check out two titles this past Monday instead of the usual one. First up, we dive into Heroes of Hammerwatch and wander around the mines for a bit before deciding we'd rather go to space. So, we hop into our ships and take off in RiftStar Raiders.

For Honor players (or what remains of them, at least), have long been stifled in their online forays by instability and host migration issues. In spite of these problems, they persisted, and with good reason, as the game's unique melee combat is a joy to behold.

Season 3 for Rainbow 6 Siege kicks off today for with Operation Chimera and a limited time co-op event, Outbreak. The new mode tasks three players with fighting off zombies across three missions. There is exclusive loot to be had, if you're into that sort of thing, but you better hurry; while the Operation Chimera content is available for as long as the game keeps going, but the Outbreak event ends April 3.

The folks at Sumo Lounge have been longtime partners of this site, providing many staff members over the years a chance to try out their premium line of bean bag chairs. These aren't the kind of "beans" you'll find at your local Target, instead they are built with quality furniture foam like that found in your living room couches. Because of this the chair will last for years and rarely loose it's fill, meaning your backside can be parked in them for those long gaming sessions.

Question, which was founded by two developers that formerly worked on Bioshock titles, has announced their next game, and it's a very interesting premise. The Blackout Club puts you and up to three other players into the shoes of some teenagers who are trying to prove to the adults that their friend's disappearance is part of something bigger.

Summer isn't too far away, so naturally, the Co-Opticrew is taking an early opportunity for fun in the sand, waves, and su-... wait. Sorry, it looks like someone got my copy wrong. This says "breach"? How... how would you even have fun at a breach? Are there games you can play, like breach games? Do you lay out and absorb whatever comes through said breach?
